Teaching family medicine residents about care of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
problem addressedAdults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), a group with complex health problems and inequities in access to health care, look to family physicians for primary care. OBJECTIVE OF PROGRAM: To enable residents to learn and demonstrate competencies that are unique to the care of adults with IDD with minimal extra time and resources required of the residency program. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: In their regular family medicine teaching practices, residents undertake planned encounters with adults with IDD involving comprehensive health assessments with physical examinations. Tools to implement the Canadian guidelines for primary care of adults with IDD are available to support the residents in their encounters. Background information in the form of self-learning and small group learning resources, field notes with rubrics to assess residents' development of competencies, and faculty development resources are also available.
conclusionIt is important to include such planned clinical experiences in family medicine residency curricula because people with IDD have special needs that are difficult to learn about in other settings. It is a benefit to residents to have patients and families actively contributing to teaching.
